<p>A takraw ball side strip (2) comprising an elongate length of plastics material having one side edge of sinusoidally undulating profile having troughs (7) and peaks (6), wherein the strip (2) is shaped or otherwise constructed to be preferentially flexible in peak regions (20) whereby, when the strip (2) is joined by its ends into a hoop (30), peak regions (20) will bend more readily than other regions of the strip. Also disclosed is A takraw ball woven from side strips as described, a more flexible peak region (20) of one strip (20a) may be positioned to overlie a less flexible strip region (34), located between a peak region (20) and a trough (7), of an underlying strip (20b).</p> |
